§ 100115 Higher Education Bond Funds

This law says that $975 million from the bonds sold under this chapter must be put into a new fund called the 1996 Higher Education Capital Outlay Bond Fund.

Key Takeaways

  • •Exactly $975 million from bond sales goes into a special education fund.
  • •The fund is called the 1996 Higher Education Capital Outlay Bond Fund.
  • •The money can only be used for higher‑education building and equipment projects.

Example

A state sells bonds and gets a lot of money. Out of that money, $975 million has to go straight into the education fund.

So if the state raises $1 billion from the bonds, $975 million is locked into the education fund and can only be used for building schools or buying equipment.

How to Calculate

Deposit Amount = $975,000,000

  1. Look at the law – it tells you the exact dollar amount that must be deposited.
  2. Take that amount ($975,000,000) and move it into the 1996 Higher Education Capital Outlay Bond Fund.
  3. The money is now set aside for higher‑education capital projects.

The state sells $1,200,000,000 worth of bonds.

Result: The state must deposit $975,000,000 into the education fund; the remaining $225,000,000 can be used for other purposes.
